Regardless if it has been sold the default still remains and the time can not be reset or whatever.

What will will happen is that you will see two entries for the same default, one for the original company and the new DCA

(null)

My credit is extremely poor, something like 228 rated as very poor

Currently have 3 defaults, one from natwest, which the 6 year mark will reach this year - will this be removed?

second is tmobile, which should clear this year or next with the 6 year mark .. however I noticed they sold this debt on last year - does this mean I have to wait a further 6 years from when they purchased the debt?

Funny this topic popped up, was going to write up letters to all of my defaulters... f*cked when you realise how important credit is !!!

If your not on the Electorial role, then its virtually impossible to get a credit card.

I wasnt on it for years and kept getting rejected for cards. I signed up to the role, it took about 6 weeks to show up on my credit file and then the week after I applied for a card and got accepted with a £5k limit.
